3 26-46% less risk for cognitive decline in subjects aged >64yrs compared to passive lifestyle Sofi ea J Intern Med 2011; 269: N=1449, age years, mean follow-up= 21 yrs Leisure-time physical activity at midlife 2x/week =reduced risk of dementia (-52%) AD (-62%) Rovio ea Lancet Neurol

4 Underlying mechanisms blood flow to the brain risk for cerebro-vascular & cardiovascular diseases/events Neurotrophic effect Release of Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) neuronal growth & survival stress = cortisol levels Sofi ea J Intern Med 2011; 269: Motor changes accompanying cognitive decline

5 Subcortical versus Cortical Subcortical Dementia Begin Phase apparant motor signs: tremor, chorea increased tonus, abnormal gait bradykinesia Cortical Dementia Begin Phase Motor signs are hidden more cognitive signs End Phase fetal posture, rigidity, contractures End Phase fetal posture, rigidity, contractures 9 40 elderly presenting increased fall-risk (aged 80.6±5.4 yrs) 41 old controls (aged 79.1±4.9 yrs) Accelerometer in belt in between SIPS Tri-axial accelerometer, sampling rate 100Hz Bautmans ea Gait & Posture :

20 39 Aim of the study Correction of head posture by manual mobilizations Feasibility Compliance / refusal / Influence on dysphagia Bolus volume 1ml, 3ml, 5ml, 10ml, 15ml, 20ml 40

21 Participants Eligibility Elderly (>65yrs) nursing home residents (AZ- Damiaan, Tremelo, Belgium, 450 beds) cognitive impairment due to dementia (MMSE<24/30) known dysphagia (logopedist) Exclusion No postural alteration Refusal 41 Methods Enrolled 10 female, 6 male mean age = 85 ± 6 years mean MMSE = 8 ± 6 /30 Randomized controlled trial 1 week (3 sessions) cervical mobilisation Control (socializing visit) Cross-over design Independent therapists Blinded assessors Intention to treat analysis 42

22 43 44

23 Feasibility 90% sessions successfully performed 3 sessions impossible due to patient's hostility 2 sessions impossible due to illness no complications 45 after 1 session from 6 ± 7 ml to 9 ± 7 ml (p=0.01) after 1 week intervention from 6 ± 7 ml to 12 ± 8 ml [+100%] (p=0.03) Improvement of dysphagia limit following cervical mobilization. outlier, *extreme, significant improvement (p<0.05), significant difference in evolution between mobilization and control (p<0.05). 46

24 CONCLUSIONS Physical exercise = counterstone for prevention and management of cognitive decline Motor alterations occur with cognitive disorders hidden in early stage (fall risk!) Worsen with pathologic evolution End stage = fetal posture Physical activity feasible & effective in all stages of dementia Gentle passive mobilizations can be integrated in PDL-strategy 47 Thank you! 48
